The newest member of the family, the ConnX Baseband Engine — see separate press release — provides industry leading computational throughput (sixteen 18-bit MACs per cycle) due to its application-specific instruction set optimized for compute-intensive LTE (Long-term Evolution) and 4G wireless base stations. Tensilica plans other ConnX family members for the low-power requirements of the handset market.
